Aqara FP300 Presence Sensor Being Slow At Detecting Presence

Aqara FP300 randomly being slow detecting presence. It used to work well, but now i walk in the room and it might take like 30 - 40 sec before the lights actually turn on. I have the FP300 connected to Aqara Hub M3 then sends to Homey Pro 2026 over Matter. Anyone else got a problem with it being slow?

Hi, have you checked the hardware version?

Hi @johbhoy , I have three FP300 and all are super fast and accurate!
Only once I had similar problem - but I just changed the place for the FP300 and everything was fine !
Did you connected the Fp300 by Matter or zigbee to M3?
I always prefer Zigbee btw , more options into the settings

And what settings did you use? Presence detection option and sensitivity?

Sensitivity: High (for bedrooms etc…) i use DUAL detection (recommended)
